A UN peacekeeper in Lebanon died on Thursday from wounds sustained when mortar shells, likely by Israel, hit his position near Marjayoun in southeastern Lebanon late the previous night, the UN peacekeeping mission UNIFIL said.

UNIFIL, which did not say where the shells originated, said two other peacekeepers were wounded and that it had opened an investigation into the incident.
